Semua Bab EX-HUSBAND'S REGRET: "Mommy, please forgive Daddy.": Bab 41 - Bab 50

Alexa hung up and started the ignition of her car before maneuvering her way out of the parking lot. Her face brimmed with amusement as she reflected on her earlier conversation with Catherine. She couldn't place it but something about their encounter just amused her so much. Unlike the last time, Alexa found herself less annoyed about meeting with her. Maybe it was because she noticed the old lady's puny efforts at trying to convince her that she was a changed person. I mean, who actually tries so hard to sell a facade like that?Alexa couldn't help but chuckle to herself as she dwelled in her thoughts. "What a fucking joke." She muttered as she shook her head pathetically, making a right turn onto the road.Twenty minutes later, Alexa arrived at the school, pulling up to the curb of the parking lot. She exited her car with two lunch packs in her hands."Mommy!" Atlas was the first to spot her and he let out an excited squeal as he broke free from Elena's grasp and dashed toward his

Seated somewhat uncomfortably behind the large table, Catherine Salvador found herself surrounded by the board of directors at JS Enterprises. Her lips formed a tight line, and her expression remained impassive as she focused intently on the young man currently presenting before the board.He was tall and strikingly handsome, with raven-black hair slicked back, giving him a fierce yet appealing demeanor. Sharply dressed in a tailored suit, he exuded an air of sophistication and confidence. Captivating the attention of everyone in the room, his audience listened intently as he delivered his presentation. This man was none other than Henry Scofield Salvador, the company’s vice-chairman, and Jordan's stepbrother, potentially even his rival.Henry was outlining a project he had made aimed at developing the company and enhancing its services to society. Occasionally, his gaze shifted to the elderly man seated at the head of the table, who watched him with obvious pride as he absorbed his i

"Hmm, nice work. You got your girl coming over today?" One of the inmates asked as they noticed Jordan's cautious activity in the restroom that morning.Jordan, who had been busy carefully shaving off the hair on his face, paused when he heard the man.He stole a glance at him and shrugged. "Yeah, something like that." Redirecting his gaze to the mirror before him, he stared at himself. He felt a pang of unfulfillment and his chest heaved in despair. He further exhaled before continuing what he had done earlier. When he was done he washed his face and tossed the shaving stick into the trash bin nearby. Jordan gazed at his reflection once more, and this time, he was a bit impressed by how he looked. He now had a clean-shaven, sharp jaw that complemented his charm. Releasing another sigh, his gaze shifted to his hair and he frowned, noticing how unkempt it looked. It didn't match his clean-shaven jaw and it made him look dirty. He didn't like that. He quickly contemplated how he could

Jordan remained quiet for a moment as he contemplated his inner thoughts. He was wracking his brain for a solution on how he could break past Alexa's barricades. He realized nothing seemed to be working on her, well, because he hadn't really attempted his real charm on her yet. He was still being sluggish with it, maybe it was finally time to do that.Jordan pressed a smile to his face, his emerald orbs directed at Alexa in a calculating stare. He paused for a few seconds, their eyes locked on each other's before he finally started as he uncrossed his arms across his torso."I'm sorry, baby." He apologized randomly, his voice thick with emotion.Alexa was undoubtedly caught off-guard by Jordan's abrupt apology.His tone filled with seriousness, Jordan persisted. "I'm sorry for all the shit I put you through. You didn't deserve that..."Alexa's jaws tightened and she barked at him as she felt he was only feigning to be concerned."Enough with that, it's too late to apologize. You had f

The truth from the paper glared at Jordan as his eyes remained fixated on the paperwork. Jordan froze instantly, his insides coursing with disbelief. He couldn't believe it. For some reason, his chest tightened with pain as he grappled with the revelation. His hands holding the paper trembled slightly as his insides spiraled with turmoil."Boss, are you okay?" Norman asked when he noticed his boss's reaction to the news. Norman's words pierced through Jordan's thoughts but they weren't enough to pull him back to reality as he was still reeling with shock and confusion. His mind spiraled with the thoughts of 'how'?'How was this possible'?'How true was this'?'How had he not known'?'How had Alexa kept such significant information from him'?The one that plagued him the most was 'How Alexa had been able to conceive his children, right after her miscarriage had been declared to him. Or was it all farce? Did she deliberately plan that so she could have an excuse to leave him? Jordan s
